Need an easy way into your first electric Benz? Step Up Agility Financing Might be the answer.
Having launched their first ever electric vehicle for under RM280K, Mercedes-Benz Malaysia now has prepared a way for more customers to afford the EQA. They’re offering Step Up Agility Finance for the new EQA 250 through Mercedes-Benz Financial Services.
There are two 5-year Step Up Financing plans for the EQA 250. The first steps up payment rates after the 2nd year, the second one steps up payment rates more progressively – once after the 1st year and once more after the 2nd year. Here are the plans visualised:
A larger down payment will reduce the instalment payments. Customers can also opt for additional insurance coverage and service maintenance.
At the end of the 5 year loan, customers may refinance, return (with Guaranteed Future Value), or keep the vehicle.
Alternatively, without a deposit, the Lease&Go option puts you in an EQA 250 for RM5,392 a month with Mobility Plus and insurance covered.
Here’s the press release with more.
